Re: Backing Up Files to a Remote Server

[Adedayo Adeyeye]

Thanks.   To get the statistics of a file on my windows box, I ran the following script:     open FILE1, "Perfect.xls" or die "Cannot open file: $!";   my @stuff = stat "FILE1";   print "@stuff";       Unfortunately, I don’t know why this never returned any values into my @stuff variable. Next I tried this:       open FILE1, "Perfect.xls" or die "Cannot open file: $!";   open FILE2, ">folder\Perfect.xls" or die "Cannot write to destination directory: $!";   system ("copy FILE1 FILE2");   close FILE1; close FILE2;     I just kept getting the error : cannot find the file specified.       Kind regards         Adedayo Adeyeye Netcom Africa Limited                               Engineering South Atlantic Petroleum Tower                7/F, 7 Adeola Odeku Street   Victoria Island, Lagos, Nigeria                   [EMAIL PROTECTED]    Tel: 234.1.461.1234 Skype: crownd Fax: 234.1.461.1235 http://www.netcomafrica.com Mobile: 0802.501.3758               The information contained in this communication is confidential and may be legally privileged.
